MAME Cabinet: Completed

I have finally completed my MAME cabinet after several months of hard word (tbh, and a lot of waiting). So, here is the completed cabinet, and some resources to help you build your own.

The final piece to the puzzle was the motherboard. While installing some new LEDs to the coin door, I managed to burn out the motherboard audio. Luckily, I have a 1-year warranty; unluckily, it was two days after the 30-day return window for Newegg. I contacted Asus for a replacement, they told me Newegg would handle it. It took about a month to get in touch with Newegg who told me Asus would handle it. Asus was much faster responding, and I finally got my replacement installed and working.

Resources

There are several online resources that I used to build my MAME cabinet, and here they are.

This is an excellent resource, and one of the most helpful to me. There is a forum which you can ask questions and get very helpful answers. Without this forum, I would not have been able to repair my monitor. The site also hosts a wiki which I used mostly to setup the software.

A Google Group for arcade games, helpful if you are looking to purchase.

About McSwindler

Not only am I awesome, I do awesome stuff! Such as Web development with a little bit of design built in, and other programming on the side. I do enjoy games, but I don't play them as much as people assume I do. I am more a fan of old gaming and I sort of collect classic systems and games. Currently my focus is working as a Web Developer for SearchDex in Dallas, TX.
Besides all of that, I like pie.
